Lyrics

Willie, Waylon and Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'd heard The Burritos out in California

could fly higher than The Byrds

Roger McQuinn had a 12 string guitar.

It was like nothing I'd ever heard

And The Eagles flew in from the west coast

Like The Byrds they were trying to be free

While in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws

Like Willie and Waylon and me.

Hey!

Well that somewhere Texas music is in the make

And we've been making music that is free

Doing one night stands and playing with our bands

Willie, Waylon and me

Oh Mad Dog! go to lead

They say The Beatles were just the beginning

of everything music could be

Just like The Stones I was rolling a lone

Like a ship lost out on the sea

And Joplin would die for the future

And Dylan would write poetry

And in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws

Like Willie and Waylon and me

Hey!

My name is David Allen Coe and I'm from Dallas Texas.

They say Texas music is in the make

And we've been making music that is free

Doing one night stands and playing with our bands

Willie, Waylon and me

Big Jim!

I'd heard The Burritos out in California

could fly higher than The Byrds

Roger McQuinn had a 12 string guitar.

It was like nothing I'd ever heard

And The Eagles flew in from the west coast

Like The Byrds they were trying to be free

While in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws
